After West Ham’s move, Everton are ready to enter fray for powerhouse

The race for Jamaal Lascelles would seem set to intensify in the coming weeks with the defender attracting the interest of a number of Premier League clubs.

West Ham have already had one bid turned down and with the Northern Echo saying a second offer is set to be tabled from them, they’re also saying that the Blues are ready to step up efforts.

Lascelles is a top defender and should only get better with the powerful player only 24-years-old.

He had a solid campaign last season for the Magpies as they returned to the Premier League and he’d certainly improve our backline with the likes of Phil Jagielka and Ashley Williams only getting older.

The Verdict

Lascelles is a player I’d really like to see at the club but Newcastle are surely going to fight as hard as they can to keep him.

West Ham want him, too, so there could be quite the battle on for his signature.
